hi guys,
check this out http://www.templatearchives.com and give me all the critiques you can...

Hey there. Sorry if this replies comes to you a bit late However, here are my opinions. My first thought when looking at the page is that it is a bit too pink. I would add some white to the background. Also, what is that picture of the guy you have there? Is that you? Why is he there? I would just get rid of him.

Also, from your homepage, I'm a bit confused what your site is about. I see from your page title it's about templates - are those just website templates? I see links to submit a link - are they links to templates? Links to template sites? The main feature of your site should stand out a bit more off the homepage.

The overall quality of your thumbnails and the lack of information will greatly diminish the chances of increasing membership or whatever you are trying to do.

I also recommend that you make "FREE TEMPLATES" stand out using proper headings/style/or even an image. Your current "Get your free template now" doesn't stand out. It should be the first thing people see. GRAB THEIR ATTENTION!!

The text looks really really small in IE6 like in the tutorial section.

Thanks... but i'm also using IE6 and the text looks normal in my point of view and the text is also not a fixed size, so by pushing the CTRL key on your keyboard and scrolling on your mouse you will increase and decrease the text size. or by going to VIEW on your browser and choosing TEXT SIZE, then MEDIUM, you will increase the text size...

Thanks though for your tip...

lol you're right sorry about that.

never assume your users will know what you know ...

Thanks.. i never assume that, and that is the reason i am collecting your comments and opinions so that i will improve the site and make it work as the users would like... and thanks to guys like you... we're going the right way and learning everyday..

Everything on the site TemplateArchives has been redone, and the engine is now based on Css, xhtml and php technique.
So, please let me hear your critique on the layout and contents.

Three things I like alot.It looks good, your using a stylesheet and it is valid code, good job.
